Chapter 439: Chapter 439: Huo Xingzhou, I Love You Very Much

The light was blinding.

The startled mandarin ducks necking in the wild hurriedly pulled down her nightgown and pushed Zhou Yu, "Quick, put on your clothes. I think that’s my dad’s voice."

As soon as Zhou Yu heard that, he also started to panic. Encountering others, he had no shame, but if it was Shu Xue’s father, that would be his future father-in-law.

"Quick!"

"Hurry up and go!"

Listening to the footsteps getting closer, Shu Xue became a bit panicked.

Shu Dad’s voice boomed, "Shu Xue? Shu Xue? Is that you?" He heard some noise in the middle of the night and someone going out; fearing an accident, he grabbed a flashlight and followed.

What he discovered was a Ferrari in the corner of the building. And the Ferrari was shaking about. It might involve some dangerous incident, perhaps even a fatal one.

The nearby voice-activated street light kept switching on and off, like it had seen a ghost.

"Uncle, it’s me!"

Zhou Yu got out of the passenger side, his specially ironed white shirt all crumpled, looking rather odd.

Shu Dad shone the flashlight carefully on him and lifted his hand, "Your buttons, they’re done up wrong."

Zhou Yu looked down to find the buttons on his white shirt mismatched, making him look somewhat disheveled.

For the first time in his life, he felt so embarrassed that his handsome face turned red, fumbling to rebutton his shirt, and chuckled awkwardly at Shu Dad. To be caught red-handed by his girlfriend’s dad while being intimate in the neighborhood was really... like scraping the ground with his toes.

Shu Dad had been young once, too, and immediately realized he had made a fool of himself. But at heart, he was traditional and maintained the image of a strict father.

"Shu Xue!"

He roared.

Shu Xue rolled out of the car, fully clothed, her hair still a mess. Her face was as red as a baboon’s butt, and she called out, "Dad."

Oh dear, seeing his own vegetable garden trespassed by a pig was truly vexing!

Shu Dad kept a straight face, pointing at them, "You two... combined age over fifty. And you didn’t even consider... there are cameras here! Come upstairs with me!"

"Okay."

Zhou Yu and Shu Xue obediently followed behind Shu Dad into the elevator, not even daring to breathe too loudly.

Shu Dad opened the door to the apartment to find the living room light on, and Shu Mum yawning as she looked over at them. When she saw Zhou Yu, her mind took a moment to catch up.

She asked, "Xuexue, weren’t you and Zhou breaking up?"

"Auntie, she’s back with me," said Zhou Yu, smiling ingratiatingly, without any pretense.

Shu Mum was quite pleased with Zhou Yu and said, "Sit down and have some water. Did you come over so late for something important?"

Shu Dad scoffed, clearly dissatisfied.

Shu Xue held the household registration book in her hand and said, "Zhou Yu came to discuss the Aid Africa medical mission. He said he’ll wait for me in our country until I’m back... We’re not breaking up."

"That’s wonderful! Zhou really has a generous and understanding heart; I’ve always seen that."

Shu Mum was smiling from ear to ear, thinking the matter had been settled.

"Humph!"

Shu Dad scoffed again.

Shu Mum shot him a fierce look, "Stop your grunting and groaning, you sound like a pig."

"Auntie, it’s quite late, I won’t disturb you any further." Zhou Yu turned to Shu Xue, his eyes almost capable of pulling threads.

Shu Mum quickly said, "It’s no trouble! We still have a guest room. Let Shu Xue make arrangements for you two. Old Shu, go back to bed."

She pushed Shu Dad toward the master bedroom, while Shu Dad reluctantly said, "You don’t know what that brat was up to down there, in the car..."

"Oh, who hasn’t been young? Back when you were at the factory, in the woods..."

In the living room, Shu Xue and Zhou Yu exchanged smiles.

All the passion and raging hormones between them rarely left room for such tender moments.

...

The next day.

Huo Family’s small villa.

Qiao Xi had packed two 32-inch large suitcases, half-filled with medical books, along with some clothes and daily necessities.

Old Chen placed the suitcases into the trunk, while Aunt Qian, holding Qiao Xi’s hand, was reluctant to part: "Young Madam, let me go with you. Someone needs to take care of your meals and daily life."

Qiao Xi shook her head with a smile: "No need, Xingzhou has arranged everything for me."

She gazed at the tall man beside her, her eyes filled with tender and honeyed reluctance. She understood that Huo Xingzhou had his own matters to attend to, and she couldn’t always expect to bind him to her side for a lifetime.

A deep voice came from Huo Xingzhou: "I will hurry to the Imperial Capital as soon as possible."

"Mm! I’ll wait for you in the Imperial Capital, husband."

Her heart was genuinely aching as she threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly. After getting married, they seldom parted, and she had grown accustomed to his scent.

Huo Xingzhou held her tight, his cheek resting against her hair as he spoke: "Be careful in the Imperial Capital, and don’t be impulsive. If you encounter any issues, let Old Chen handle them. If Old Chen can’t manage them, then go find... Zhong Yi! He’s a partner of Tianyuan Group and will help you."

He was far away in Haicheng, and distant waters cannot quench nearby fires.

But with just a little more patience, this distant water would turn into nearby water, and at that time, the situation in the Imperial Capital would undergo earth-shattering changes.

To take the Imperial Capital, the first move was to target the Xiang Family!

"I’ll follow your advice," said Qiao Xi, her head buried in his chest, her voice muffled, "You told me not to be impulsive, so I will try my best to restrain myself. You said you would handle Grandpa Cheng’s matter, and I believe you."

She really didn’t want to leave him.

"I will come after I’ve dealt with the matters in Haicheng."

"Okay."

Her heart was full of reluctance.

Huo Xingzhou bent down and lightly kissed her smooth forehead. "Don’t worry too much about saving money for me, and don’t be too constrained. In a place like the Imperial Capital, be assertive when you need to be and don’t accept any humiliating treatment you shouldn’t. At least, don’t compromise when it comes to money; the money I earn is for you to spend."

"Mm-hmm."

She nodded vigorously, tears welling up in her eyes.

"I will miss you," Qiao Xi looked up at him, "I will miss you a lot."

"If you miss me, just call."

Huo Xingzhou’s kiss landed on the corner of her lips, "I will wait for your call every night."

"That will disturb you, and I can’t drag you down. I know that if you stay in Haicheng at this time, it must be for something very, very important."

He hadn’t said, and she hadn’t asked.

As long as both understood, that was enough.

"Young Madam, everything is packed. We should head to the airport now, the private plane’s flight plans are approved, and we can leave at any time."

Old Chen entered and saw the young couple embracing; he turned and said, "I’ll wait for you in the car."

Qiao Xi said softly: "I’m leaving, Huo Xingzhou."

"Be careful on the way. I will definitely arrive before your needle trial conference begins."

"Okay, I’ll remember that."

In just ten days, they would meet again.

Qiao Xi smiled at him, turned, and walked out. Yet, just as she reached the entrance, she suddenly turned back, threw herself into his arms, and stood on tiptoes to deeply kiss his thin lips.

"Huo Xingzhou, I love you very much."

She released him and hurried out.

Soon, the sound of the car starting echoed, slowly fading into the distance.

Huo Xingzhou’s lips curved into a very faint smile, his fingers touching his own lips. She had never said such words before.
